NS: DC asks if Joker's Batman's soulmate, calls them "toxic BFs"
Apr. 26th, 2026 01:00 pmcyberghostface posting in scans_dailySomething I thought was funny/interesting... the official DC page did a poll asking whether or not Joker is Batman's soulmate and referred to the pairing as being "toxic BFs".
This isn't the first time either, the official Batman page compared Batman and Joker to Netflix's Heated Rivalry. (As a side note, one of the show's leads Connor Storrie has a pretty significant Joker connection in Joker: Folie à Deux.)

Not that I expect this to officially reflect in the comics beyond the usual subtext but it is interesting to see DC embracing it on social media.

- I edited
- I've sent my fic off to my beta
- I posted today!
- I'm taking a break
- I did something else that I'll talk about in a comment

Disney on Ice: JLA #57, JLE #33 (JLI 87)
Apr. 25th, 2026 10:22 pmtcampbell1000 posting in scans_dailyJLA Giffen-DeMatteis-Wozniak, JLE Giffen-Jones-Robertson. Warning for just SO MUCH NYC-based destruction. If you thought JLI #11 had a little imagery that hit different after 9/11, you hadn't seen anything yet.
Inspector Camus comes to the Justice League’s old embassy to find Michael Morice cleaning up. Morice may have been fired some time before the UN shut down the whole Justice League operation, but this was his embassy before that, and he won’t leave it in a state of bloody disorder! Shaking his head, Camus uses the monitor room to contact the League, but the League is in wild party mode in celebration of Max's return. So that’s about as productive as discussing anal-retentive tendencies with Morice. ( Or pacifism with Despero. )

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Saturday Morning Adventures Issue 36
Apr. 25th, 2026 07:38 pmzylly posting in scans_dailyThe latest issue of TMNT: Saturday Morning Adventures (which you should all be reading, it is a delight and features nods and references to all forms to TMNT canon), features Bebop telling a sick Krang a bedtime story, set in a vaguely fantasy-ish realm.
And, well, it features a cameo from some fellow Saturday morning stars who are even more lost than usual...

Batman #1
Apr. 25th, 2026 06:30 amcyberghostface posting in scans_daily
"Everyone loves a deeply flawed character with a dark sense of humor… and The Joker’s always been a crowd-pleaser. Happy anniversary to one of the Caped Crusader’s greatest rogues, who made his comic debut in BATMAN #1. Written by Bill Finger, with pencils by Bob Kane, and inks by Bob Kane and Jerry Robinson." -- James Gunn

Today's birds
Apr. 24th, 2026 07:25 pmsteorra posting in common_natureToday I made two short trips to a local stream and saw quite a few different kind of birds, partly with the help of binoculars:
- Great blue heron wading in the stream
- Hawk (red-tailed?)
- Green-winged teals
- Black-capped chickadees
- American robins
- A reddish finch (house finch?)
- A hummingbird too far away to identify and too quick for me to binocular
- A little yellow-and-black bird, probably a goldfinch but it was gone before I got a good look at it.
- A tiny bird that I suspect was a golden-crowned kinglet because I think I saw a splash of yellow on its crown but again I didn't get a good look before it was gone.
- Some brown sparrow-y birds that I couldn't identify
- Plus the city birds I see all the time without going anywhere: pigeons, crows, starlings, gulls (glaucous-winged?)
I also saw some red admiral butterflies and I think I caught a glimpse of a scampering mouse-sized mammal but it got into cover too quickly for me to really see (probably just a mouse).

Oh Venus
Apr. 23rd, 2026 08:31 pmyourlibrarian posting in common_nature
Looked out at the sky the other night and the moon was not that bright. Despite what appears in the photo below, we could see the entire ball of the Moon. It was just that the slice was brighter.
What was also very noticeable was Venus. After a number of attempts I was finally able to get a non wavery shot of it in close-up.
